Huge thanks to Fiona D. and Damien Behan (Brodies Solicitors) at Brodies LLP for sharing their experience with Definely. From a smooth deployment to firm-wide adoption, Brodies has made Definely a default part of how documents leave the firm: embedded into induction, championed by their lawyers, and trusted by their teams. "The more people use it and trust it, the more it becomes a default part of the workflow." Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/eYptQbcn

"They said no, it wasn't possible. I said it must be possible." That mindset helped Nnamdi Emelifeonwu go from a corporate lawyer at Freshfields to building one of the fastest-rising AI companies in legal tech. What started as an attempt to help visually impaired lawyer navigate complex contracts became Definely, now used by global organisations. On the latest episode of the Business Leader Podcast, Nnamdi joins Sir Richard Harpin to discuss: ▶️ scaling internationally ▶️ raising funding ▶️ why AI is changing the legal industry faster than most people realise One of the most interesting parts of the conversation was hearing how early Nnamdi "caught the bug" for entrepreneurship, and how solving a real problem for underserved people became the foundation for a global business. 🎧 Watch now: https://lnkd.in/eqHhV_BG

"Differentiation looks totally different now than it did two years ago." Nicola (Nikki) Shaver of Legaltech Hub shared her insights with our CEO Nnamdi Emelifeonwu. Law firms are entering a new era where ROI isn't a nice-to-have metric, it's the question every stakeholder is asking. AI-native firms are entering the market built for speed and efficiency from day one. That raises the stakes for established firms to not just adopt technology, but to roll it out successfully and drive genuine usage. Thanks Nikki for an insightful conversation. 🙏

“The big thing is making sure that you're covering all your bases. These big tools out there aren't going to solve everything. There's no magic button." The legaltech market is noisy. A new tool every week, companies jumping from vendor to vendor, demos that look great on clean data but fall apart in the real world. How can you innovate effectively? I recently sat down with Max, Director of Innovation Solutions at Troutman Pepper Locke LLP, to talk about how one of the US's largest firms approaches technology adoption. "Find the right people, negotiate well, and wake up tomorrow and see what else is out there”.

In the AI era, the most dangerous idea in the legal profession is not that machines can help lawyers draft. The dangerous idea is that once something has been generated, it no longer needs to be reviewed with care. The future of legal work will not be defined by those who can most efficiently draft, it will be defined by lawyers who can verify, understand and stand behind it at the speed now required by the market. This is Definely’s pledge. This is The Age of Review.

It is so interesting what has happened to law over the past few years. A profession that historically trended to the conservative suddenly found itself at the forefront of one of the most significant advances in technology that we have seen for decades. In many ways the legal industry is still calibrating to the new norms and methods and is still figuring out what works and what does not. What we can say for sure though, is that the nature of drafting and producing legal documents has changed. Where once we knew the provenance of a document (it was either created from a template or a precedent) and we knew that the edits were made by people sitting across the negotiation, a new element has been added via Generative AI. The result is now that a lawyer can receive a document and never know exactly what part of the document has the traditional finger prints of production or what part is wholly generated by a language model. Not only that, but the pace at which documents can now be turned around has increased, so in many ways we are in a world where the pace of production has increased and the potential scope of errors has also increased. What has not changed is that firms are still accountable to their clients and individual lawyers are still bound by their respective codes of practice. No matter what has produced the document this relationship has not waivered and one of the critical elements that underpin that relationship, that trust, is the review process. We have often said that the drafting process isn’t slow because it is incredibly difficult, it is slow because uncertainty is really expensive, either reputationally or financially. It is the process of review that is designed to reduce or mitigate that uncertainty. In this ever evolving world at Definely we believe that the review process needs to adapt and evolve to meet the demands of a new generation and a mixed paradigm of provenance. Of course lawyers have always applied their critical thinking to careful review and so they should. In many ways, the process was already stretching the limits of our cognitive ability, however with the introduction of Generative AI into the drafting flow, new problems can arise, problems that are a lot less obvious to the traditional reviewing process because the tool doing the drafting is designed to be confident, subtle and coherent, but we also know that it is not always right. The question really for the review process is how do we maintain the integrity of it. Going back to fundamentals, it is important to remember that drafting and reviewing are two very different functions and our belief is that it is critical to maintain that functional difference. Our conviction is that a modern review tool needs to maintain the structural independence from the means of production. In other words, the maker cannot be the checker or to use a legal analogy you cannot be the judge in your own defence.
